Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, when I’m alone I suffer from crippling loneliness that makes me cry, yet when I have people around me or I try to go on dates, I hate it so, I make excuses to be alone again. FML

Today, I realised I'm so used to being invisible that I prefer it now. Human interaction is overrated. FML

What a pity
Today, I realized I will never find love again. I broke down after I finally realized that no woman will love me like I used to be loved. I have not dated anyone for almost 10 years. I try to go on dates, to no avail. I will forever be alone and I will forever be tortured by my loneliness. FML

Happy holidays!
Today, I realized this holiday season is the first time in 4 years that I won't have a partner to share the holidays with. My partner of 4 years cheated on me this summer. I'm still bitter and dating is unnecessarily difficult. I wish I could just be happy alone and never feel lonely again. FML

Depression 2023
Today, I was finally alone for the first time in a year. I thought I'd go to a restaurant, but ended up getting there before they opened. While waiting, I listened to music, only to end up crying for several minutes because I haven't had a girlfriend since 2010, and never will again. FML

I feel that either might not actually true for you and you're frustrated with the dating scene, or it is true and not actually an FML - It's a revelation that means you can stop trying to force yourself to pursue a relationship if you genuinely don't want to and cut that stress out of your life. I mean, admittedly, yes, too much of society is structured around the assumption that everyone will have a single monogamous partner (IIRC the term for that is amatonormativity), so there can be frustrations in that regard. And like, even if you don't want a romantic/sexual relationship, living alone can be, well, lonely, compared to having a partner. Make sure you've got an adequate social network so that you're getting your socializing/companionship needs met (to whatever level they may be), and you'll be golden.
